An Cumann Gaelach

With emphasis on spórt, spraoi agus craic, the school’s Irish club, An Cumann Gaelach, meets every Tuesday from 3.30pm to 4.30pm. The club has a diverse range of activities from ICT work to Drama to games, dancing, competitions, Irish film, parties and cultural celebrations. The club provides students from Year 8 to Year 10 with the opportunity to use and develop their Irish language skills in a fun, interactive environment.

To date, members of An Cumann Gaelach have been actively involved in Drama competitions and the school’ s very successful Culture Night, as well as designing and creating entries for the annual Year 10 Fashion Show. Other highlights in the year of An Cumann Gaelach have included movie-making and ‘A Night at the Pictures’ as Gaeilge, celebrations for Hallowe’en, Christmas, St Bridget’s Day and St Patrick’s Day.
